A Petersburg woman was killed this morning after she lost control of her SUV and rolled multiple times outside of Lubbock on Interstate 27.

Anjelica Moralez, 27, was pronounced dead at the scene by an official with the Lubbock Medical Examiner’s Office, a spokesperson with the Texas Department of Public Safety officials said.

Moralez was driving a 2003 Dodge Durango south on I-27 when she clipped a 2005 Chevrolet van, lost control and flipped several times, finally coming to rest in the northbound lanes of I-27, just north of the Lubbock Preston Smith International Airport.

The driver of the van, Terry Creswell of Slaton, was not injured, DPS officials said.
